Bohyun, Apologies for the ambiguity. I didn't know if you were restricted to a specific CMS or platform already, or if you'd have the ability/freedom to extend development of a payment gateway yourself. For example, if you were using WordPress, and were already locked in to Mijireh, or needed a solution to fit some existing proprietary need. It doesn't sound like that's the case. You will still need an SSL certificate on the domain you plan to run charges through - but you can use non-SSL for testing purposes. I've found the documentation fairly easy to navigate, but I've been implementing their solutions for a couple of years now, and perhaps familiar with how they've set things up. Just a thought - if you're replacing a cash register at the front desk, you could also look into Square (https://square.com). I think they're giving that little square credit card swipey-thingy away now for free after successful registration/activation. You could just pickup an inexpensive Android Tablet or find a used iPod Touch to handle transactions. They don't offer an embedded API for use in websites - yet. I hope that helps! .m On Fri, Jul 11, 2014 at 8:26 AM, Kim, Bohyun <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Thanks everyone for more online payment system/service options! > > Mark, thanks for mentioning about the PCI/DSS compliance in relation to > this.
